1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

It is well documented that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Gag cleavage site mutations (CSMs) emerge in conjunction with various HIV-1 mutations for protease inhibitor (PI) resistance and improve viral replication capacity, which is reduced by acquisition of the resistance. However, CSMs are not the only mutations that emerge in Gag during treatment; many mutations other than CSMs (non-CSMs) have been found to accumulate in the Gag region. In the present study we demonstrate the important role of Gag non-CSMs with regard to viral fitness recovery. We selected three Gag-protease sequences with different PI resistance-associated mutations and CSMs from patients with antiretroviral treatment failure. To clarify the significance of CSMs and non-CSMs, four types of recombinant viruses with different patterns in each sequence were constructed. These were the GP type (patient-derived Gag and protease), the P type (HXB2 Gag and patient-derived protease), the GP(-c) type (CSMs removed from the GP type), and the P(+c) type (CSMs in the HXB2 Gag frame and patient-derived protease). By comparison of these four types of recombinant viruses in each patient-derived Gag-protease sequence, we found that non-CSMs, which had no systematic pattern, make a significant contribution to viral fitness recovery. Our findings demonstrate a delicate interaction between the in vivo evolution of Gag and protease to evade drug selective pressure and the importance of Gag in evaluating drug-resistant viruses.
